OK, dude, here are my comments
Bad Weather - By greatly increasing the liklihood of bad weather you are penalising agility teams who rely on passing the ball. Is this really something you want to do?
66 Result
4 - too complicated. You have to roll alot of dice to generate your player
6 - Before you said that the 66 result was odd because it could basically decide a drive. This result could decide a game, as could 5 for that matter.
8 - This, on the other hand, can affect a season. I really don't think this is a good idea.
10 - Is the ubiquitous table linemen? Why not just make them CWs? It's just a big quicker
11 - Again, too complicated. If you want to make them something in particular, just say so.
I prefer the one we came up with before for 66. Lots of them did change a drive and heavily favour one team, but with the exception of a mutation it was only ever a drive and we balanced them to not penalise one type of team overall. The way they changed a drive was hilarious as well. I had a great time, even when the AG values were reversed and I was elves (now AG 3) playing against Lizards, (now 6469 and 8247) just because it was so fun. They were also simpler as a rule.
adjustments
You make a good point on bad weather, and no that isn't my intention, should i restructure to the original version or do you think we might find a way to restructure the weather table to make it more balanced?
The 66 stuff is crazy i agree, so i think changing it all so that it affects a single drive is better. i don't like the adjusting ag thing that much, but it might work better with the mixed teams.
4 is too complicated, will try to think of a better thing.
5 would two random events work?
6 might be ok if it just lasted a drive?
8 this is basically the same as i envision "that boy's got talent" working. it's very low probability of getting a good player. the mutation is just for giggles. would it be better without?
10+11 i'll make 'em change into a specific things and have it last only a drive, you're correct it would be simpler.
Suggestions
How about
4 - Gives you a specific player for a drive; I'd suggest a minotaur WITH the neg skill, as that's more chaotic and not too overbalanced (they're often liabilities)
5 - you could keep it the same but say they *have* to use them in the drive, as that could create a very interesting end-to-end drive
6 - sure
8 - I understand the low prob and all, but I think if somebody gets one it will just make other people envious. That said, team rating *will* adjust so maybe it should be left. How about saying he's already 2 years old, so he'll age a little faster. Could so the same with TBGT.
10 - all linos change into chaos warrirows?
11 - all linos turn into gutter runners with stunty and dauntless?
Changes
Have made the proposed changes now. Does it look better?
